Haha, the same thing happened to me. Everyone was shitting bricks about how it could murder your computer, so I avoided it.
Recently got it, and it's pretty decent, not worth buying though.

Never heard of the orphanage, prolly along the same lines though.
Haha, I know exactly how you feel about scary games. I'm the same way. I love it, but I hate it. Best advice I can give, is rent the game that includes all of the first FEAR games (if you've got an Xbox 360) and invite a couple buds over, and play them over 3 nights or so. It is so much fun.

Aw, now I need to reinstall Doom 3.
Damn you zhuge.
And my god, Turmobil, you don't know the half of it.
There was this one part, where you're walking down a hallway after a massive gunfight. So at this point, you're pretty wired and think that more gunfights are coming. You go to a pool of water, start climbing up a ladder, then she bursts out of a fucking vent, claws at your face, and goes back in.
I thought I was going to have a stroke.
Then this other part, where you're walking down a subway tunnel (not the train tunnels, the tunnels where people would normally walk to get to the trains). It's all dark, I KNOW something is coming because a corpse looked at me as I came into said tunnel. So now, I'm kinda jittery and freaked out.
Anyways, I'm just balling down this tunnel, lights go off, Alma shows up in the distance, like at the end of the tunnel. I strained my eyes and was all "What the fuck is she do- OH MY FUCKING GOD". The lights had turned back off seconds after she first showed up, flicked back on, and she was DIRECTLY in front of me, walking at me. Once more, I nearly shit my pants.
And btw, the lights weren't even lights, it was like a greenish glow she was emitting.
But seriously, go buy this game man, you'll love it.

Yeah, there wasn't much innovation aside from the AI, and the slow-mo effects.
It's a REALLY solid shooter, though. Aside from the half life games, this one is one of my favs as far as a story shooter goes. (Unreal Tournament still comes out on top for arena styled shooters) I'd highly recommend the F.E.A.R series to anyone looking for a shooter with a great story, gameplay, and solid graphics.
And seriously, you will shit your pants.
I remember countless times in the game where I actually had to stop playing for a week or so just to get a breather. One part that really stood out is when you're moving through this wing of a hospital under construction, and you enter into a room with drywall walls, and scaffold n' shit all over the place. The floor is covered in blood, you're literally ankle-deep in it. Anyways, all these ghosts start pouncing you, they run up, punch you once or twice, then run off. A vague outline of them is visible, along with glowing red eyes. Anywho, as all of this is going down, Alma (main antagonist) is just standing in doorways, when you approach her, she either walks away, or dissolves into dust.
It fucked me right up.
